Variable Selection via Partial Correlation.
Partial correlation based variable selection method was proposed for normal linear regression models by Bühlmann, Kalisch and Maathuis (2010) as a comparable alternative method to regularization methods for variable selection. This paper addresses two important issues related to partial correlation based variable selection method: (a) whether this method is sensitive to normality assumption, an...
متن کاملL Partial Occam's Razor and Its Applications Partial Occam's Razor and Its Applications
We introduce the notion of \partial Occam algorithm". A partial Occam algorithm produces a succinct hypothesis that is partially consistent with given examples, where the proportion of consistent examples is a bit more than half. By using this new notion, we propose one approach for obtaining a PAC learning algorithm. First, as shown in this paper, a partial Occam algorithm is equivalent to a w...
متن کاملNonparametric Bayes Applications to Biostatistics
1. Introduction Biomedical research has clearly evolved at a dramatic rate in the past decade, with improvements in technology leading to a fundamental shift in the way in which data are collected and analyzed. Before this paradigm shift, studies were most commonly designed to be simple and to focus on relationships among a few variables of primary interest. For example, in a clinical trial, pa...
متن کاملBiostatistics : fundamental concepts and practical applications
The biostatistics has gained significant importance in recent years, being one of the mainstays of current scientific research. It has a series of concepts and rules that must be understood to carry out or analyze an article. In this review we will discuss some of main tools utilized in works of interest in ophthalmology, its applications and limitations.
متن کاملBayesian variable selection in additive partial linear models
Many studies in recent time include a large number of predictor variables, but typically only a few of the predictors have significant roles. Variable selection techniques have been developed using both non-Bayesian and Bayesian approaches. Additive partial linear models (APLM) provide a flexible yet manageable extension of linear models, where some variables can have non-linear effects. We dev...
